R. Kelly’s sister refuses to acknowledge his victims, claiming racism played a role in the embattled singer’s sex trafficking conviction.
“I can say he may have been with younger women, but as far as underage girls, no—and I stress underage girls. Who has seen that? I believe a lot of the alleged victims are bitter,” she added.
Phillips pushed back against this claim, asking if they would “acknowledge the victims.” However, she stated that she wouldn’t “acknowledge something I don’t have proof of.”
“He is not a monster, he is not a pedophile,” Lisa Kelly said. “The only victim I’ve seen that’s been stolen from, lied on, is Robert.”
She added, “I don’t care about what a lot of people [say], I can only go by what I see, what I know, what I’ve experienced.”
GMB later obtained a statement from one of the alleged victims, which Phillips read on air. “R. Kelly‘s sisters should be supporting us women of color for bravely speaking out. He deserves to spend the rest of his life in jail,” the victim said.
